PheWAS and cross-disorder analyses reveal genetic architecture, pleiotropic loci and phenotypic correlations across 11 autoimmune disorders
2022-10-20
Abstract excerpt
Autoimmune diseases (ADs) are a group of more than 80 heterogeneous disorders that occur when there is a failure in the self-tolerance mechanisms triggering self-attacking autoantibodies. Most autoimmune disorders are polygenic and associated with genes in the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region. However, additional non-HLA genes are also found to be associated with different ADs, and often these are also implica...
